I much prefer weaving a few posts, both my own and other people's into a much longer post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My concerns about the email are still there - it is experimental, but whilst I much prefer to use coComments for a lot of conversations, many prefer email, just as a large number of my subscribers are email. I need to hack the plugin with some legal stuff for CYA purposes.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">AndyBeard</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Feb 2007 11:37:09 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Tale of Little Linkalot and Some Blogging Thoughts</title><link>http://andybeard.eu/407/the-tale-of-little-linkalot-and-some-blogging-thoughts.html#comment-10988004</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Here is what I have written in the past about speed linking&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://andybeard.eu/2007/01/speed-linking-slow-linking.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://andybeard.eu/2007/01/speed-linking-slow-linking.html"&gt;http://andybeard.eu/2007/01...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From an SEO standpoint what I have seen many do doesn't create quality content, it just sends people to read someone elses blog.

Sorry. That will teach me to finish reading the post before I ask silly questions. I don't know. I think I would have stuck with your original position on this one. Suppose some clever male enhancement pill spammer figures a way past the gate keeper and the pill ad lands in all of your readers inboxes. Most will be reasonable enough to realize what happened, but what about the one time reader who forgets he even checked the box? Or the brand new reader who gets it as one of his first emails from your system.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know it's a rare possibility, but a possibility none the less, and you work hard for your reputation, Andy.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dane Morgan</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Feb 2007 11:07:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Tale of Little Linkalot and Some Blogging Thoughts</title><link>http://andybeard.eu/407/the-tale-of-little-linkalot-and-some-blogging-thoughts.html#comment-10988003</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Heh, I commented before I read the whole post.
